La Dordogne

After five days in the big city, it was time to head out to the countryside. Our destination was Souillac, a small town that was set along the Dordogne River.

We had booked an intercity train which turned out to be extremely comfortable. Four hours on the train went by in no time, and we emerged into the bright sunshine of Souillac. Our accomodation was a cabin in Flower Campsite Les Ondines (the French version of Top 10) which was a 30 min walk from the train station. With our packs on and the sun beating down on us, it was a very hot and sweaty walk down to the campground. We were very glad to finally arrive and see a pool there. We checked in and headed to our wooden cabin, which was nice and had everything we needed, except air conditioning or a fan, sigh. We were in for a hot five days.

After getting set up and unpacked, we headed off to the supermarket, which was another very sweaty walk in 30 degree plus heat. We made our way back to the campground, packed away the food, and headed immediately for the pool to cool off. We finished off the evening making dinner and relaxing. -V

(We couldn’t find any condiments that weren’t in large containers which we knew we couldn’t take with us so we made absolutely flavourless chicken schnitzel with crushed croutons for crumbs haha -H)Okumaya devam et
